Very, very excited – Ian and I are off on our travels
again, this time heading East to Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.
We haven’t ventured this way for some 12 years when Ian was
hospitalised on our way back to Bangkok Airport. We had 3 scary days whilst he was prodded,
poked and investigated but in the event it wasn’t Typhus, Dengue Fever, Malaria
or one of a host of other nasties, but “just” gastroenteritis. I knew he was better when we finally got to
the airport and his eyes lit up at the sight of a giant yellow M!!!
So we fly to Ho Chi Minh City (apparently still called
Saigon by its residents), then to Siem Reap (Cambodia), Luang Prabang (Laos)
then back to Hanoi, Vietnam .
